About this ebook

Private Investigator Wayne Tempest thought he’d left the badge in his past, but a new twist in his case pulls him back to everything he ran away from. Gone with no trace but photographs left at the abduction site, a growing body of victims has never been seen again. Until now. After Wayne witnesses 11-year-old Aaron Garret and his father taken in the same way, the bodies of two past victims are discovered. Desperate and discouraged, Wayne reaches out to his former partner, the only cop he still trusts, Detective Julie Martel. Despite a tension-filled past, he knows together they can bring Aaron and the others home.

But for Aaron, home is a distant dream. Imprisoned in the lavish Prescott Estate, Aaron and his father join the “cast” of captives forced to act out the scripts of the spoiled and unbalanced Lincoln Prescott. With a bloodthirst for realistic production value, Lincoln regularly forces the cast to kill each other. On camera. With no choice but to play along, Aaron can only pray rescue comes before he and his father are written off this production.

Author

J.J. Francesco

For J.J. Francesco, the seeds of writing were planted with entering Reading Rainbow story contests as a young child. In the coming years, his writing often took unique forms – from making up his own Pokemon to imagining soap opera storylines in his head based off of anime characters. As a teenager, the writing moved to the page, starting with fanfiction, then serialized character dramas, and ultimately resulting in his first novels and short stories. “Mirror, Mirror,” was his first publication in the award-winning college literary magazine Limited Editions, with “Untitled Short Film” following in the next annual issue. Literary magazine Transient, published a third short story, “After School.” In 2014, J.J. published his debut novel, “Blood Chain,” through Rivershore Books. He also serves on the staff of the hit website, NewReleaseTuesday. J.J. lives in Philadelphia with his family.
